Nice Staff

The initial greeting was great from the bag drop to the check in. After that it when down hill quickly. The fairways were in fair to poor condition and the green were unplayable. I understand weather had a devastating effect and would take some time to repair and recover. I hope that happens.

Always a fun course to play. They had some issues with the greens but that is improving. Staff is always friendly and very helpful. Traffic onto Sanibel is getting busy. Plan your travel time accordingly.

Beautiful but horrible greens

Greens are in very bad shape, nobody said anything when we checked in. There is a small sign by entrance to pro shop that you don’t notice till you are done with the round.

Nice Day on the course

Unfortunately the greens were destroyed during the offseason. Otherwise had a great time Fairways were fine and the layout is good. I am doing it again this week! All of the stuff was excellent! Would like to have filtered water available, since the local water is not very good even when put on Ice. Lemons? A drink cart on the course would be appreciated.

Could be great

This course has potential. Course layout is good, greens not to much, truly a mess. Personnel are cordial, very nice. Understand it’s Sanibel and you have a captive audience, but pricing is out of line.

Lower the price to $60. a round, work on the greens, get an affiable ranger to Gabitz abit and keep things moving, operate a refreshment cart (charge fairly/tips will flow) and you will have more foursomes, grow reputation and generate more revenue. Tieing reasturant and bar more to course experience would generate more business as well.

This could be one of the most popular and liked courses on the area.

Sad

The course layout was very nice challenging and narrow unfortunately the greens were horrible and most tea boxes and fairways were also

We played Tupac rule because the greens were so bad

Expected a better manicured course for the price

Fair and enjoyable

My wife and I have played there 3 time in the past two weeks. Very friendly staff as well as meeting nice couples to play with. A practice range would be nice, but understand there is not a lot of space available. The greens are in terrible shape, but the course has signs advising you in advance of checking in. So fair warning. Overall, very enjoyable.

Poor Greens

Very nice golf course. Very convenient if you are staying on Sanibel/Captiva. Unfortunately, they had severe damage to the greens in 12/21 and they have not recovered, especially the front nine. Some greens are completely unplayable. In their favor, they offer a full refund if you want to quit after 2 or 3 holes. There are not many options on the island. Also, the restaurant doesn’t open till 11 and there is no beverage cart. Just water fountains. Still it’s a really fun layout and we had a great time

Worst course of my life

They should be embarrassed to call this a golf course

There were no greens

Made tee time on golf now and NO INDiCATION that there was a problem with the course

Not just the greens that are just tinted sand but the course is wet and spongey

Don't waste your money

Worst course I've ever played

Worst ever

The owner of Sanibel should be embarrassed to be open let alone charge $110!!

The course was muddy and rough

The "greens" were nothing but green tinted sand!!!

I work on a course and wouldn't play if my conditions were alike

I drove an hour and a half to a famous resort island and would firmly suggest to everyone " don't go"

Waste of money

I'm a bogey golfer
